Chris P.O.V.

I wake up back in S.T.A.R. Labs, in what appears to be the med-bay. I exit, and start to walk the hallways in search of the Cortex. Instead of finding the cortex, I find Dr. Wells. His back is turned to me, but when I approach him, he turns.

"Chris." He says.

"Dr. Wells. Sorry, I just got lost trying to find the Cortex." I explain.

"Yes. However, I see you didn't listen to me when I warned you." Wells starts. "I told you not to exert yourself, yet, you knocked yourself unconscious. I'm disappointed in you, Christopher."

He starts to leave, but I call out to him.

"Dr. Wells! I'm sorry! It's just, I lost focus, and I lost control. I promise it won't happen again." I say, hoping he'll listen. Instead, he just keeps on moving.

"Listen to me!" I shout. "So what?! I messed up! Big deal!" I sigh. "It's not like you care about what I"m doing anyway."

Wells turns to face me. "Christopher." He says. I detect anger in his tone. "You have no right to speak to me in that tone." He growls.

I don't back down. "So what? I'm not some sort of lab experiment that you can just ignore 'till the next day! Damn it, I'm a real person! You think these tests are all fun for me? Y-"

"They aren't meant to be fun, they're tests!" Wells interrupts me. "They are meant to be grueling so we can learn more!" He yells.

I'm fuming with anger, so I run out of the lab, and straight home. I slam my door, and lay in my bed, thinking of all the events that just happened.
